that was one of the better games I have seen in years. Pistons over Sixers in OT. Blake with the game-winning FT on a beautiful little play and drive to the bucket. He was amazing tonight with 50. The best I have seen him look in the NBA. good for him!!

I couldn’t agree more.

Blake was unstoppable. His 50 points was a new career high. He was good from three again, making 5 of 10. He also had 14 Rebs, 6 assists and 1 block. That last play in OT to win the game was classic. Everyone expected the Pistons to shoot from three with just over 5 seconds left. Blake faked a handoff to a teammate from behind the arc, took the ball inside for an and one, then calmly made the free throw to give the Pistons a one point lead and a great win.

Definitely one of the best games and best performances by a former Sooner I have ever seen!

It's worth it to check out the highlights, especially that last play which you detailed.

Yes, this was the best game ever by an NBA Sooner. Prior to that, I would have gone with a game by Wayman Tisdale which he made 14 shots in a row on his way to a 44-point game...and it was against a Michael Jordon Bulls team.

and not far behind was the 3rd ever NBA game by trae young 35p 11a only 1 turnover

yeah he was. I havent seen a big man be so dominant all over the floor against good competition since I am not even sure. I am not even sure who to compare him to. I guess Tim Duncan. But Blake is more about power and quickness and (now) better outside shooting. PLUS after the game he showered and did a stand-up set at the Laugh Factory. seriously. he did.

Here’s the game winning play. Blake had two of the NBA’s top five plays in that game:

Hawks came back from a large deficit to win in their home opener (down by as many as 25 perhaps). Trae scored 17 points and got off to a slow start but he did have a highlight reel move where he dribbled between the legs back and forth followed by a spin move and took it to the basket and made an off balance shot which really fired up the crowd (not sure how he wasn't fouled on the play).

this makes me smile. so much for "he won't make those plays against the pros". even wondered that some myself. but he's really showing some shine even early. I hope he plays amazing and they follow a little of "the process". it would be nice to see a strong team in atlanta again.

After watching him in HS, I said the same thing about college and then said the same thing about him with regards to the NBA. Kid is a freak.

Did you see the intimidation attempt by Wesley Matthews and Deandre Jordan prior to two late game FTs? Vince Carter stepped in between Trae and Matthews. Funny, Carter could be his dad and, sort of, acted like it there. Then Trae drained both FTs.

He is fun to watch. Sooner hoops needs to use the OU DNA social media the football uses. Be a good recruiting tool right now.

Blake has a legit shot this year at being NBA All First team! I really believe he is going to continue to put up huge numbers in the East.. If the Pistons can finish in the top 4-5 as well that would look good for him. I always said from day 1 that he had a shot at becoming one of the top 5-7 PFs of all time! I still believe that as well One of my favorite players of all time!
